How big of a lip do you have on the rear wheels?? I'm trying to figure out what to order for wheels for my '67 and that's about what I'm looking for.

Thanks,

The back spacing is about 5-6", just enough to give me a bit of a lip of 3-4". I don't have the wheel specs right in front of me, but I believe I posted them in this thread at some point.

Question:
Did you have to mini-tub it "Deep" (going deep into the frame rail) to fit the 335/30/18's on it? Do you have any issues with rubbing? Any tips to someone currently trying to to this with DSE's mini-tubs right now?

Also... if you don't mind... any tips on the Speed Tech Torque Arm? I am doing the same setup in my convertible.

I went fairly deep I think, I don't have any issues rubbing, even when the rear end is articulating like going over a speed bump or going up my driveway, there's plenty of clearance.

Anything specific that I can answer? The torque arm is fairly straight forward, the only real issue I had was locating the upper mount bar that comes in the kit. It can be a hassle to keep it held up while you weld it in place.
